FORT WORTH, Texas, May 2, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OmniAmerican Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq:OABC), the holding company for OmniAmerican Bank, today announced earnings for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The financial information contained herein at and for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 is unaudited.

First Quarter 2014 Highlights

OABC reported net income of $1.5 million for the first quarter of 2014 compared to net income of $1.9 million for the first quarter of 2013. This is a decrease of $404,000, or 20.9 percent. On a per share basis, first quarter 2014 earnings were $0.14 per diluted share compared to $0.18 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2013.

The primary contributor to the decrease in net income was a $2.4 million decrease in noninterest income. This decrease was primarily attributable to decreases of $1.4 million in net gains on sales of investments, $603,000 in net gains on sales of loans, and $345,000 in net gains on sales of premises and equipment. The decrease in net income due to a decrease in noninterest income was partially offset by increases due to a $1.1 million increase in net interest income, a $689,000 decrease in noninterest expense, and a $376,000 decrease in income tax expense.

Loans, net of the allowance for loan losses and deferred fees and discounts, decreased $29.4 million, or 3.6 percent, during the first quarter of 2014, to $795.5 million at March 31, 2014 from $824.9 million at December 31, 2013. This decrease was primarily attributable to a $30.5 million decrease in indirect automobile loans resulting from the previously announced discontinuation of our indirect lending program.

Deposits increased $19.0 million, or 2.3 percent, during the quarter ended March 31, 2014, to $832.6 million at March 31, 2014 from $813.6 million at December 31, 2013. The increase in deposits reflected an $11.1 million increase in noninterest-bearing demand deposits which included a $10.1 million increase in commercial deposits. In addition, increases in interest-bearing demand deposits of $3.5 million, money market deposits of $2.7 million, and savings deposits of $2.3 million were primarily due to organic deposit growth in the bank's 14 branches. These increases were partially offset by a $557,000 decrease in certificates of deposit.

Total assets for OABC remained relatively unchanged at $1.39 billion as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Securities classified as available for sale increased $34.0 million, while loans, net of the allowance for loan losses and deferred fees and discounts decreased $29.4 million and cash and cash equivalents decreased $3.0 million.

OmniAmerican announced that it will merge with Southside Bancshares, Inc., creating the ninth-largest bank based on deposits headquartered in Texas.

Additionally, the Company announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share. The cash dividend is payable on June 6, 2014 to all shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 16, 2014.

"OmniAmerican continues our commitment to our strategic goals of commercial and mortgage loan growth. The growth in commercial deposits is attributed to our investment in a strong commercial team, and we expect loan growth to follow," said Tim Carter, president and CEO of OmniAmerican Bank and OABC. "Our core earnings remained strong in the first quarter of 2014. Our earnings for the quarter reflected an increase in net interest income and a reduction in operating expenses, including an eight percent decrease in salaries and benefits costs. Our consistent growth, disciplined expense management, and sustained community commitment has positioned us well to continue meeting the needs of our customers, and I am excited about what the planned merger will mean for our ability to achieve our strategic objectives."

Financial Condition as of March 31, 2014 Compared with December 31, 2013

Total assets remained relatively unchanged at $1.39 billion as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Securities available for sale increased $34.0 million, while loans, net of the allowance for loan losses and deferred fees and discounts decreased $29.4 million and cash and cash equivalents decreased $3.0 million.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $3.0 million, or 18.6 percent, to $12.9 million at March 31, 2014 from $15.9 million at December 31, 2013. This decrease was primarily due to $53.7 million in cash used to purchase investment securities available for sale, $36.2 million in cash used to originate loans, and a $23.3 million net decrease in Federal Home Loan Bank advances, during the quarter ended March 31, 2014. These decreases were partially offset by increases in cash due to loan principal repayments of $51.9 million, a net increase in deposits of $19.0 million, principal repayments and maturities of securities of $15.3 million, proceeds from the sales of loans of $11.3 million, and proceeds from the sales of securities available for sale of $6.4 million.

Securities classified as available for sale increased $34.0 million, or 7.9 percent, to $464.8 million at March 31, 2014 from $430.8 million at December 31, 2013. The increase in securities classified as available for sale is primarily attributable to purchases of securities available for sale of $53.7 million and a decrease in unrealized losses of $2.4 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2014, partially offset by decreases due to principal repayments and maturities of $15.3 million, the sales of securities available for sale of $6.2 million, and the amortization of net premiums on investments of $630,000.

Loans, net of the allowance for loan losses and deferred fees and discounts, decreased $29.4 million, or 3.6 percent, to $795.5 million at March 31, 2014 from $824.9 million at December 31, 2013. The decrease in loans is primarily attributable to a $30.5 million decrease in indirect automobile loans resulting from the discontinuation of our indirect lending program in October 2013.

Deposits increased $19.0 million, or 2.3 percent, to $832.6 million at March 31, 2014 from $813.6 million at December 31, 2013, primarily due to an $11.1 million increase in noninterest-bearing demand deposits. The increase in noninterest-bearing deposits included a $10.1 million increase in commercial deposits which resulted primarily from our efforts to deepen our commercial relationships. Interest-bearing demand deposits increased $3.5 million, money market deposits increased $2.7 million, and savings deposits increased $2.3 million, primarily due to organic growth in the bank's 14 branches. These increases in deposits were partially offset by a $557,000 decrease in certificates of deposit.

Federal Home Loan Bank advances decreased $23.3 million, or 6.4 percent, to $338.7 million at March 31, 2014 from $362.0 million at December 31, 2013. The decrease in Federal Home Loan Bank advances was attributable to scheduled maturities of $88.3 million, partially offset by advances of $65.0 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2014.

Stockholders' equity increased $3.2 million, or 1.5 percent, to $210.3 million at March 31, 2014 from $207.1 million at December 31, 2013. The increase in stockholders' equity was primarily due to increases resulting from a decrease in unrealized losses on available for sale securities of $2.4 million ($1.6 million after tax), net income of $1.5 million, share-based compensation expense of $425,000, and ESOP compensation expense of $213,000 during the quarter ended March 31, 2014. These increases were partially offset by a decrease due to dividends declared of $573,000.

Asset Quality as of March 31, 2014 Compared with December 31, 2013

Non-performing assets decreased $216,000, or 4.0 percent, to $5.2 million, or 0.37 percent of total assets, as of March 31, 2014, from $5.4 million, or 0.39 percent of total assets, as of December 31, 2013. This decrease was primarily due to the repayment of a non-performing commercial business loan in March 2014 with a balance of $417,000 at December 31, 2013.

Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2014 Compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2013

Net income decreased $404,000, or 20.9 percent, to $1.5 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 from $1.9 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2013.

Net interest income increased $1.1 million, or 12.1 percent, to $10.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 from $9.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. Total interest income increased $727,000, or 6.6 percent, to $11.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 from $11.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, partially due to an 11.7 percent increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets, partially offset by an 18 basis point decrease in the average yield on interest-earning assets. Total interest expense decreased $358,000, or 17.2 percent, to $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 from $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, primarily due to a 21 basis point decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by an 11.7 percent increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities.

The provision for loan losses increased $150,000, or 30.0 percent, to $650,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 from $500,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. The provision for loan losses is charged to operations to bring the allowance for loan losses to a level that reflects management's best estimate of the losses inherent in the loan portfolio. The increase in the provision for loan losses was primarily due to an increase in net chargeoffs and growth in the loan portfolio. Net chargeoffs increased $149,000, to $627,000, or 0.31 percent of average loans outstanding, for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 from $478,000, or 0.25 percent of average loans outstanding, for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. Total loans receivable increased $54.4 million, or 7.3 percent, to $798.4 million at March 31, 2014 from $744.0 million at March 31, 2013. Impaired loans decreased $8.9 million, or 40.0 percent, to $13.3 million at March 31, 2014 from $22.2 million at March 31, 2013. Non-performing loans totaled $3.3 million, or 0.41 percent of total loans at March 31, 2014, compared to $8.4 million, or 1.13 percent of total loans, at March 31, 2013. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-performing loans increased to 196.06 percent at March 31, 2014 from 82.49 percent at March 31, 2013. The allowance for loan losses to total loans receivable ratio decreased to 0.81 percent at March 31, 2014 from 0.93 percent at March 31, 2013.

Noninterest income decreased $2.4 million, or 41.0 percent, to $3.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 from $5.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, primarily due to decreases of $1.4 million in net gains on sales of investments, $603,000 in net gains on sales of loans, and $345,000 in net gains on sales of premises and equipment. The decrease in net gains on sales of investments is attributable to sales of $6.2 million of investment securities for a gain of $259,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 2014, while $44.5 million of investment securities were sold for a gain of $1.7 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2013. The decrease in net gains on sales of loans resulting primarily from a decrease in the volume of loans sold to 67 loans sold in the first quarter of 2014 from 144 loans sold in the first quarter of 2013. The decrease in net gains on sales of premises and equipment resulted primarily from a $344,000 gain recognized on the sale of land adjacent to one of our branch locations during the quarter ended March 31, 2013.

Noninterest expense decreased $689,000, or 6.1 percent, to $10.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 from $11.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, primarily due to a $575,000 decrease in salaries and benefits expense resulting primarily from a reduction in force which occurred during the fourth quarter of 2013.

_______________________

(1) Annualized.

(2) Yields on loans and total interest-earning assets, the interest rate spread and the net interest margin include the effects of $1.3 million of non-accrual interest income recorded during the quarter ended September 30, 2013. The yields on loans and total interest-earning assets would have been 4.68% and 3.84%, respectively, excluding this non-accrual interest income. In addition, the interest rate spread would have been 3.18% and the net interest margin would have been 3.27%.

(3) The interest rate spread represents the difference between the weighted-average yield on interest-earning assets and the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the period.

(4) The net interest margin represents net interest income as a percent of average interest-earning assets for the period.
